TRIVIA

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Wii U Edition was released on November 30, 2012 in Europe.

Originally, when the Wii U console was first shown at the E3 2011 in Los Angeles, Namco announced that they would develop a Tekken game exclusively for the Wii U, which was untitled at the time. However, at E3 2012, it was announced that Tekken Tag Tournament 2 would come to the Wii U, which was already going to come to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Since Tekken Advance marked the franchises debut on Nintendo platforms, and the only other Tekken game on a Nintendo system since is Tekken 3D Prime Edition for Nintendo 3DS, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 marks the first time the Tekken franchise appears on a Nintendo home console. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Wii U Edition is amongst the first third-party Wii U games that is to be available in both retail and as a downloadable format for the Nintendo eShop.
